Dino Hunt | May 25-Aug. 2

The dinosaurs aren’t extinct…they’re stomping around Leavenworth! Stop by the Children’s desk for your dino hunt sheet. Each week, the Library will share a brand new clue on social media, on the website and inside the Library. Read the clue carefully – it will lead you to a favorite Leavenworth spot somewhere in town. When you discover the dinosaur, write down the secret code on the back of your sheet. Then, bring your paper back to the Library to spin the prize wheel and collect your prize(s).

Week 1 Clue:
This dinosaur didn’t go extinct… it went to read!
Find it where we have the stories it needs.
